that may not be what they're meant for...but doesn't everyone agree that that's what they do? so even after a day of the car being dry (and it could be more than 24 hours), if i roll the windows down then up, i should expect to see water marks on the windows because the rubber sealant has dried yet? and these water marks should leave stains on my window? didn't think rubber could retain water like that.

the concern was more the fact that even after a day of being dry, why would the windows still get wet. obviously if it just rained and i did this and i expected it to be dry, i'd be expecting a miracle. i think even after 8 hours of sitting in a garage while i'm at work should be plenty of time for wherever this water is hiding to dry out. obviously the window isn't wet after 8 hours right. and neither is the rubber right?
